The Society now owns six sets of smallpipes available for hire to members. All are out on hire at this time, but we have a steady turnover so get your name on the waiting list now!

These pipes are specially made by respected maker Richard Evans; they are of the same quality as all his pipes, but have only one drone. They are the ideal opportunity for anyone considering taking up bellows piping, or awaiting delivery of an ordered set.

The following conditions apply:

You must be a member of the LBPS

Pay a returnable deposit of £100 pounds

Pay a monthly hire charge of £15 pounds

Sign a simple hire agreement with the LBPS

At present we have no limit on the period that pipes may be hired for, although if there were pressure from others we might have to ask for return of the instrument after a reasonable period.

Latest update - all practice pipes are currently out on hire, but if you are interested email me with your contact details and I will put you on the waiting list - strictly first come first served!Allan

One set of practice pipes has been returned, the previous hirer having now taken delivery of his own. So this set is once again available for hire. A chance for you to have a go over the summer holidays or do a bit of homework before classes start in September.
